Methods

destroy() → {undefined}

Destroys the WebGL resources held by this object. Destroying an object allows for deterministic release of WebGL resources, instead of relying on the garbage collector to destroy this object.

Unlike other objects that use WebGL resources, this object can be reused. For example, if a data source is removed from a data source collection and added to another.

Type Definitions

newClusterCallback(clusteredEntities, cluster)

A event listener function used to style clusters.
Parameters:
Name Type Description
clusteredEntities Array.<Entity> An array of the entities contained in the cluster.
cluster Object An object containing billboard, label, and point properties. The values are the same as billboard, label and point entities, but must be the values of the ConstantProperty.

Example
// The default cluster values.
dataSource.clustering.clusterEvent.addEventListener(function(entities, cluster) {
    cluster.label.show = true;
    cluster.label.text = entities.length.toLocaleString();
});
